Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ೮ has the Unicode code point U+0CEE. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thex
are the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+0CEE to binary:
00001100 11101110
. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
11100000 10110011 10101110

Description
The character U+0CEE is the Kannada digit eight, which plays a crucial role in digital text by representing the numeral eight in the Kannada script. As part of the Kannada numeral system, it enables accurate numerical representation and counting in written Kannada language. Kannada is a Dravidian language predominantly spoken in the Indian state of Karnataka, as well as parts of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, and Maharashtra. U+0CEE contributes to preserving the linguistic heritage and cultural identity of Kannada speakers by facilitating the accurate representation of numerical values within digital platforms. It is important for digital typography and Unicode encoding to accurately render these characters in order to maintain the integrity of the language and ensure effective communication among users.
